This year there sre 100 dental chairs available for patients to receive cleanings, extractions, fillings and root canals -– up from about 80 last year. But dental hygienist Laurel Bleak said it still wasn’t enough.
“We try to do the best we can with limited resources,” Bleak said. “We could easily spend five hours on each patient.”
